Law.
This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal
laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict
of
law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other
jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdictions
other than those of the State of New York.
The
Parties hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State

(f)Amendments
and Waivers.

provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes
closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or
provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified.

The
language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be the language chosen by
the
Parties to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction
shall
be applied against any party. Any

also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the
context requires otherwise.

shall be entitled to enforce its rights under this Agreement specifically to
recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision or term of this
Agreement and to exercise all other rights existing in its favor. In the event
of any dispute under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled
to
recover its costs incurred in connection with the resolution thereof, including
